Katherine Ryan Talks Saving Money, Mum-Guilt and Imposter Syndrome

www.popsugar.co.uk, April 30, 2024

Beloved Comedian Katherine Ryan has many talents; comedy, presenting — and apparently she's also a wizz at selling pre-loved fashion on eBay. We sat down with the comedian ahead of hosting the first ever eBay Live where she'll be selling some of her own pre-loved items and designer wear, to talk selling tips, mum-guilt and imposter syndrome.

Katherine: When I when I was living in Toronto, I was a hustler. I was very drawn towards different ways that I could make money. I was a self—starter and I felt like a little baby entrepreneur. So I started selling things on eBay, probably around 2002, 2003. At that time you had to take photos on a camera, plug the camera in and download the photos to the laptop and make your listing. I always wanted to have extra money and it was wonderful. Now, I'm really excited to be working with eBay just really organically. I've always really leaned into sustainability and pre-loved clothes. A lot of the things that I wear on TV and stage are pre—loved, and I don't keep them.

Comic Katherine Ryan says she HATES British food: Canadian star reveals she can't stand sausage rolls, sees 'no need' to pickle eggs and doesn't understand why Brits 'put everything in a pastry or a pie'

British food is just no laughing matter for Katherine Ryan, who previously sparked controversy by revealing her list of 'unacceptable' UK delicacies. 'The war is over and it doesn't have to be leftovers any more - you're a real booming economy,' says the star of Channel 4 hit 8 Out Of 10 Cats, who moved to the UK in 2008. In a similar complaint last year, Ryan told journalists on the TV Choice Awards red carpet she has a list of 'unacceptable' foods, including bread sauce, 'all the chutneys', and Yorkshire puddings.

Joe & Katherine's Bargain Holidays review: Comedians gave us little to laugh about on this boring bargain break, writes ROLAND WHITE

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 25, 2024
ROLAND WHITE: A few years ago, Norway popularised the fashion for so-called Slow TV where nothing much happens: dreary train journeys, interminable boat trips, and even an evening devoted to fires and firewood. Joe & Katherine's Bargain Holidays wasn't quite as slow as that, but if it were a car, it wouldn't have picked up any speeding fines in Wales. Comedians Joe Wilkinson and Katherine Ryan went on holiday to Norfolk for four days and didn't really do very much. The idea is that Joe loves a bargain, while Katherine has to be prised from the lap of luxury with an industrial-strength crowbar. As Joe puts it: 'She loves the shinier things in life.' For Katherine, a good trip involves luxury accommodation, fine dining, and perhaps a spa day. Joe, by contrast, wants to come home 'with cash still on the hip - enough to buy a sit-on lawnmower'.

After a thorough report found that the sexes are wired differently, from sense of direction to rationality, the subtle differences between men and women's brains that you had NO idea about.'

www.dailymail.co.uk, February 21, 2024
Artificial intelligence found differences in brain activity that hadn't been previously seen by scientists, revealing 'hotspots' that can be used to distinguish the sexes. According to the results, there are key differences in the 'default mode network,' a brain device that aids us in processing the concept of'self,' and the striatum and limbic network, which are both important in learning and responding to rewards. The researchers, who came from Stanford University, said the report helps end a long-running debate over whether there are sex differences in the brain. However, previous studies had already pointed to differences in how men and women think, with women expected to have greater memory and writing skills, while men being more active and have better navigation skills (shown in diagram). In addition, it was already known that male brains were about ten percent larger than average, clocking in at 1.37 kilograms compared to women's 1.27 kilograms.
